1st XI
The Club resumed Competition cricket after a six season recess in the late 1920’s/early 1930’s when a dispute with the Ringwood & District Cricket Association (R.D.C.A.) went unresolved. The recess was then further amplified by the effects of the Great Depression, when cricket in Ferntree Gully was put on the back burner.
